Etornam, representing the Volta Region, has been crowned winner of TV3’s Ghana’s Most Beautiful 2025, becoming the third contestant from the region to annex the coveted title.
The grand finale, held on Sunday night, saw Etornam edge out four other finalists from across the country, with Asakia from the Upper East Region and Sika from the Ashanti Region emerging first and second runners-up respectively.
Isabella Etornam Gagblezu, a native of Mafi Dove in the Central Tongu District, was born in Yeji. She is an actress and media personality and previously won Miss Oxford SRC in 2018 and Miss Oxford Queen in 2019.
She attended Adidome Roman Catholic School, Madina Cluster of Schools, Adidome Senior High School, and the Oxford Institute of Business and Journalism.
Throughout the competition, Etornam distinguished herself with her eloquence, cultural depth, and stagecraft. She showcased the rich traditions of the Volta Region, including the Ewe kete fabric and the Atrikpui/Agbadza war dance. Her performance during the “Justify Your Inclusion” night, which featured a vivid narration of Ewe kete weaving and clan totems rooted in Keta and Anlo, earned widespread acclaim.
As part of her prize package, Etornam received a brand new sleek car, among other rewards.
The finale was graced by several dignitaries including the Volta Regional Minister, Hon. James Gunu; Member of Parliament for Central Tongu, Hon. Alexander Hotordze; the District Chief Executive for the area; and traditional leaders from the region.
Etornam joins Emefa (2012) and Selorm (2023) as Volta Region’s past winners of the prestigious cultural reality show, which celebrates beauty, intellect, and Ghanaian heritage.
